Hamilton Town Meeting unanimously accepted the gift in 2013. Subsequently, the Patton Advisory Committee was formed by town officials to explore possible uses for the property. An RFP was issued earlier this year seeking developers to purchase a four-acre portion of the property. C.P. Berry Homes was selected over North Shore builder Charing Cross.

Under the terms of the agreement, C.P. Berry will pay $1.15 million for the land and develop an age-restricted 55-and-older condominium community of 12 homes in six duplex-townhouse style buildings. The homes, which start at $675,000, will feature first-floor master suites, eat-in kitchens, guest bedrooms and two-car, attached garages.
